And David. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Hearst is also very happy that Kate joined his revenge plan, you must know that although there is no shortage of people around him, but for an experienced police detective like Kate to join, it is definitely a tiger to his revenge plan.

It is very helpful for the success of his revenge plan, after all, most of the people around him, like West, can only be regarded as think tanks, and most of these people used to be white-collar workers in the office, and these people may be the best at deceitful people in the mall.

But for this kind of revenge action involving iron and fire, these people are not so good, and although he can hire some mercenaries, but most of those mercenaries are brainless goods, and it is no problem for you to let them do anything, but it is unlikely that those people can grasp the scale of things.

And there are some things that are not appropriate for these people to come forward, and if Kate comes forward, it will be much easier.

So this is time for David. Hearst's mood is also very happy, Kate should not be an undercover agent put in by the other party, and the credibility is absolutely no problem, after all, she has been in Japan before, helping herself find her daughter, and the things she experienced are also her opponents, added to her, so she has the same goal as herself, so she is the most reliable teammate.

"Alright, David, now that we're in the same trench, can you tell us what happened to you?"

Kate can't wait to find out who is behind the whole thing.

"Actually, it started a few months ago...

David. Hearst didn't have any intention of hiding it, so he said directly, this room was full of people he trusted, and Jin Muchen and they were also very curious about Hearst's experience some time ago, so they all listened with bated breath at this time.

"As you all know, our family actually started in California, and although we now have the headquarters of the Hearst Group in New York, our roots are still in the west. In recent decades, there has been a disagreement within our family about whether it is better to focus on the east or the west. This kind of controversy has not been fruitful since my father was still around, but my father finally decided to make New York the center of gravity of the family, after all, it is closer to the economic and political center of the United States, and we in the news media cannot do without these two things anyway. But my uncle has always had doubts about this matter, and my father also agreed to his request, that is, while the family shifted its focus to the east, he did not relax the management of the east, so he gave my uncle a part of the financial and resource support, so that he has been developing in the west... ”

"The uncle you're talking about, isn't it Thomas. Hearst's father? ”

Kate abruptly interrupts David. Hearst asked, and David nodded in surprise, it seems that this female detective still has a job before.

"Lawrence. Hearst is my father's own brother, my father and his relationship has always been good, when my grandfather and my father after my grandfather died, because of the problem of being squeezed in the west, and in the future development of the group, when the family focus shifted to New York, Lawrence stayed in the east to develop, during that time he did very well, he believed that the development of a family, can not be concentrated in one area, but to disperse the operation, Therefore, he did not put his business center in the field of traditional news media, which we started from, but took these as the foundation, and at the same time invested in other industries and diversified operations, and some banks, military enterprises, and engineering construction projects that he invested in in the east have developed very well. In the 80s of the last century, I handed over a perfect answer to the family, and my grandfather was very satisfied with his ability, and even wanted to hand over the future of the whole family to him... ”

David. Hearst said this, but usually outside the rich family secrets can't be heard at all, so Jin Muchen They all listened to it with relish, in fact, the development history of these big families in Europe and the United States, if it is really recorded like a history book, is not weaker than the development history of those dynasties in China, it is very interesting, but unfortunately, the development history of these families will not be easily announced to the public, so most outsiders do not know the development experience of these families, and this time there is an opportunity to hear such an interesting story from David's mouth, This made Jin Muchen and the others feel that the trip was worthwhile.

Even West and the others pricked up their ears at this time, after all, they didn't know about the past of the Hearst Group.

Lawrence developed very well, and his family was very satisfied with him, but he made a fatal mistake, that is, in the nineties, he missed the frenzy of network technology that arose in the western region, and the fields he invested in were basically those older industries, although these industries were documents, but in terms of the speed of making money, and the influence on the future, they were certainly not as fast as those Internet companies. My father seized the opportunity, and it was because of this that my father was able to gain a head start on the family board and eventually win back as the new head of the family, much to the dismay of Lawrence and his family. ”

In the seventies and eighties of the last century, Silicon Valley had just formed a scale, and most of the American giants did not realize the future development potential of this small place, so not many people paid too much attention to it here, but those venture capital companies that had little capital but were more courageous made a lot of money in the rise of Silicon Valley.

For example, Sequoia Capital, which is now famous all over the world, was just a little-known small venture capital company back then, but it was by relying on its bold adventures in Silicon Valley and digging a big gold mine several times in a row that this venture capital company has developed into a benchmark in the American venture capital industry.

Later, many other large conglomerates and traditional wealthy families also saw the success of Sequoia Capital in Silicon Valley, and then they followed up one after another, and began to increase investment in those high-tech companies in Silicon Valley, which led to the glory of Silicon Valley today.

Listen to David though. Hearst said this, obviously it was because his uncle Lawrence did not pay attention to Silicon Valley that their family lost such a great opportunity to make money, so this eventually led to Lawrence, who was ultimately defeated in the matter of competing for the inheritance of the family, and Lawrence's descendants did not seem to be particularly convinced by this matter.

"So the people who staged a coup d'état within your family and plotted against you this time are Thomas and his son?"

Kate was a little anxious, so she asked David directly. Hearst to.

And David. Hearst shook his head with a wry smile: "I'm really not sure about this, because Thomas and I grew up together, although we are not brothers, but the relationship is similar to that of brothers, if he plots against me and wants to get rid of me, I think it's unlikely, he is not so ruthless." So, I'm still not sure who is going to kill me. ”

David's words made Kate and the others stunned, he said so much about Thomas's father before, but now he said that it wasn't Thomas who was plotting against him, so who was it?

"My uncle, though not very happy with my grandfather's arrangement, accepted it and went back to the West, where he continued to grow, and then he handed over his business to Thomas. My younger brother studied architecture in college, so he wasn't particularly proficient in running a business. After he took over Lawrence's business, he was not very proficient in other fields, and successively sold a lot of my uncle's investment business, and finally only focused on real estate, before, he did well in this business, but then you also know, because of the subprime mortgage crisis, the real estate crisis broke out, and he lost a lot of money at that time, if it wasn't for me at the time, he would have been removed from the company's list by the family board of directors. About half a year ago, he suddenly came to me and said that the California government was going to build the first high-speed rail in the United States, and hoped that the Hearst Group could intervene and provide him with support, I thought about it a lot, but in the end I still rejected him, he was disappointed, but he didn't say much. ”

As soon as David said this, Kate and Jesse's eyes suddenly lit up, because through what they had encountered in the villa the night before, at this time they felt that the mastermind behind the whole thing was about to surface, although David thought that it was unlikely that Thomas was behind the scenes, but they didn't think so, they thought it was Thomas who was making trouble behind his back.

"David, may I ask, why don't you support this plan?"

Jin Muchen suddenly asked a question at this time, because he felt that it was very important.

"It's very simple, just because of the current economic situation in the United States, and the current conditions, the national government of the United States must not want this project to pass, and a large part of the people certainly do not want this project to succeed...

David's answer can be said to be categorical, Jin Muchen was stunned when he heard it, how could he be so sure? (To be continued.) )
